I am a broadcast industry veteran, most of that time spent in my hometown of Houston. I’ve has been a program director, news director, business partner, news anchor and talk host in both radio and TV over the years.

Named one of Talkers Magazines Top 100 Radio Hosts in America for 2 years, I also started the first news department at Metromedia's KRIV-TV, was morning producer and anchor at KHOU, the CBS TV affiliate in Houston and Asst. News Director at Channel 39.

I was for 5 years, a partner and news/program director for Gleiser Communications, a chain of 4 radio stations here in the Tyler/Longview market. My news department collected 36 AP awards in that time, including a couple for me.

I’ve traveled to the Middle East 3 times on stories, including covering the Gulf War and the Oslo Accords. Four assignments in Europe included the fall of the Berlin Wall, German Reunification and the Irish "Troubles." I’ve interviewed actors, authors, world leaders and every President from Ford to Bush II.

I know, I know. Too much info, but hey, I’ve misspent way too many years in this business.
